An advanced equipment process is an important technological assets to companies. Development of the IT industry has led to an increase in demand for the semiconductor productivity of the high efficiency, steadily. But it is not easy to test using actual process because TAT (as known turnaround time of job) is so long. the test cost is also expensive. This paper proposes a DEVS model for simulat...

In this paper, a distributed simulation-based computational intelligence algorithm for inverse problem of nanoscale semiconductor device is presented. This approach features a simulation-based optimization strategy, and mainly integrates the semiconductor process simulation, semiconductor device simulation, evolutionary strategy, and empirical knowledge on a distributed computing environment. F...

Many companies consider business process management strategies a fundamental source for successful business operation. Despite this importance of business processes a conceptual and operational gap still exists between the business and the IT view of processes. In this paper we argue that an important reason for this gap is the strong focus of IT on the behaviour and execution perspective of wo...

Services are today over 70% of the Gross National Product in most developed countries. Hence, the productivity improvement of services is an important area. How to collect data from services has been a problem and service data is largely missing in national statistics. This work presents an approach to collect service process data based on wireless indoor positioning using inexpensive wireless ...

Process modelling is the formal description of the activities undertaken by an organisation. By modelling such processes we can support and improve these activities. Taking a control system development project as an example, we describe how process modelling can be integrated into an EXPRESS based environment using the EXPRESS-P extension to EXPRESS. In order to capture some important aspects o...

The goal of predictive monitoring is to help the business achieve their goals, help them take the right business path, predict outcomes, estimate delivery time, and make business processes risk aware. In this thesis, we have carefully collected and reviewed in detail all literature which falls in this process mining category. The objective of the thesis is to design a Predictive Monitoring Fram...

This paper presents experiences we had from building a workflow tool from scratch using XML technology. Although we had to create a simple process modelling language for this workflow tool, the focus of this paper is on how to use XML technology to build workflow tools. The experiences we have achieved, should be applicable for all kinds for process modelling languages. The paper consists of th...
